Approved Media
To achieve optimum print quality and maximum printhead life, Datamax-O’Neil specifies the use of
Datamax-O’Neil brand media. These supplies are specially formulated for use in our printers; use of non-
Datamax-O’Neil supplies may affect the print quality, performance, and life of the printer or its
components.
For a current list of approved media and ribbons for use in direct thermal and thermal transfer
applications, please contact a Media Representative at (407) 523-5650.
